    I was watching you do this from the road. It was awesome.

    Nice video guys, thanks for the details and explaination for calibration. I like your suggestions on the divider between the bins, good thing CAL-Ranch had a scooper! The seedhose is being addressed and we will have an update for you in the near future.

    You can get that anti static hose from companies here, if needed in a pinch. I don't remember the company we got it from when I was at the feed mill

      It was good to meet you. We will probably start potatoes tomorrow and I will start making a planting video.

      We go over ours with a lemken karat 10 chisel plow to prep it.

    Do you have to calibrate each time you fill up?

    • @RockyMountainFarmer
      @RockyMountainFarmer  7 місяців тому

      No, in reality you really only need to calibrate it when you’re changing varieties or increasing how much you’re planting per acre

    Can I come and work for you guys?
    Just kidding. Probably don't want an old guy. I grew up on a farm and miss it. The equipment has advanced leaps and bounds since the 70s.
    Take care.

      If you live close, sometimes we need a truck driver here and there during harvest

    Fall of 2022 we ran a kelly diamond harrow once , sown 2.2 bu per acre with a airplane. Then one pass with a 46ft McFarlane harrow. Made 110 bu per acre. Probly wont ever happen again

    • @RockyMountainFarmer
      @RockyMountainFarmer  8 місяців тому

      That would be an interesting thing to see, an airplane seeding a field, crazy

    You pushed the wrong button when the machine was folded in. You should have touched the left one to tell the machine that it is folded in. Then all valves are off and you arent able to move the tools.

    Wow to have hoses on the seeder last 1000 acres is unreal
    would not be a good machine if you are planting thousands of acres

    • @RockyMountainFarmer
      @RockyMountainFarmer  8 місяців тому +1

      We agree they told us they are working on getting better hoses
